Research Behind GRITForge: Crafting Resilient Minds

Before designing GRITForge: Crafting Resilient Minds, Vikaas Kausshik conducted extensive research to ensure the course addresses the unique needs of Indian teens. Studies show that 86% of Indian adolescents face academic pressure, with nearly 50% reporting stress due to personal or peer-related challenges (UNICEF, 2022). Additionally, the World Health Organization highlights that one in seven teenagers experiences mental health issues, often compounded by societal expectations and a fear of failure.

Understanding these realities, Vikaas interviewed over 200 teens and parents across India to gain deeper insights. Common themes emerged: a lack of self-confidence, difficulty in managing setbacks, and the need for practical tools to build resilience. He also collaborated with educators and psychologists to identify evidence-based strategies that empower teens to navigate challenges effectively.

The course is designed around the principles of Positive Psychology, incorporating techniques like growth mindset development, goal-setting frameworks, and emotional regulation practices. What sets GRITForge apart is its culturally relevant approach—activities, examples, and scenarios resonate with the Indian teen experience, making it relatable and impactful.

Backed by this research, GRITForge: Crafting Resilient Minds equips teens with the skills they need to bounce back from setbacks, make confident decisions, and thrive in today’s demanding world. It’s not just a course; it’s a toolkit for lifelong resilience.
